Top Wild-West Destinations in Montana, Pt 3

Daring exploration and wild escapades punctuate the history of the Wild West. If you’re on vacation doing your own exploring, what better place to start than in one of the biggest limestone caves in the West? Located less than an hour from Bozeman, MT, Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park is the perfect destination for everyone who has an appetite for adventure. Lewis & Clark Caverns If you’re traveling near Bozeman, Big Sky, or Yellowstone, make sure to load everyone in the van rental and head to the caves. Below are just a few of the activities the cave tours entail:
  • See magnificent stalagmites, stalactites, helictites, and more
  • Glimpse a western big-eared bat
  • Slide down the Beaver Slide (a favorite for kids)
  • Learn about the cavern’s interesting history
Tour Details These interactive tours will entertain and inform both children and adults. The tours last approximately two hours and require about two miles of walking. The staff recommends dressing comfortably and wearing tennis shoes for the tour. In the winter Lewis & Clark Caverns offers special candlelight tours on select weekends. Call to reserve a spot or to receive more information. The cost for the candlelight tour is $15 per adult (ages 12 or older) and $8 per child (ages 6 to 11). Summer tours are available as well. Tour guides advise that children under the age of six do not participate in the candlelight tours, but young children can do the summer tours.
